A stochastic model is presented for TDD-based WMNs. Considering the parameters that affect the network performance like ratio of control slots number to data slots number, collision probability, node density and average hopcounts, the availa- ble capacity for each node is inferred. Meanwhile, the order of transmission range for robust connec- tivity of large scale WMNs is derived. With the stochastic model and inferred available capacity per node, the performance of TDD-based WMNs using IEEE 802.16 standard is analyzed under various conditions. Simulation results indicate that the available capacity of IEEE 802.16-based TDD-based WMNs and the theoretical result have the same increasing and decreasing trend as the node density increases. Simulation results also illustrate the optimal value of the ratio of control slots number to data slots number that maximizes the available capacity.展开更多

Network coding is a new technology which improves network performance. An algorithm is presented that it uses network coding to reduce queue length and delay time when self-similar traffic occurs. Based on synchronization, data packets are classified by destination address and lengths. Simulation results show that with the proposed synchronization techniques, network coding, even in scenarios with burst self-similar traffic, where network coding could not have been deployed so far, increases throughput and lowers packet loss in wireless mesh networks.展开更多
